[QUOTE="Silverback, post: 648941, member: 43255"] Those of you that have handled the Tamron 18-400mm, is it as bulky and heavy as the specs make it sound? If I actually like the big/old Tamron 18-270mm (about 23mm shorter and 150g lighter) for what it gets me (I feel like you get a lot of reach and picture quality for the size and especially weight), do you think I'll be happy with the 18-400? The Nikon 18-300 is basically the same size (1mm shorter, a few mm thinner and I think 10g lighter), and looks like it's a better lens all around then the Tamron 18-270 so I figure that one I'm safe in guessing that I'll be happy with what I get for the package size.
